Overview
MS Maud
Formerly named MS Midnatsol, MS Maud provides a way to explore the beautiful Norwegian Coast that stands out from the crowd. Consider taking a journey aboard MS Maud, the answer to every explorer’s dreams. MS Maud gets her name from Roald Amundsen's "Maud", a ship from 1917 named after the first Queen of modern-day Norway. Hurtigruten also commemorated her in its 1925 flagship, the DS Dronning Maud ("DS Queen Maud").
Offering cruises specifically designed to enjoy the stunning Norwegian coast, you will have plenty of opportunity to immerse yourself in the rich culture of the destinations you will explore along the way. Hurtigruten’s long history of voyaging along this route guarantees you the most enjoyable cruise experience found anywhere.

All stateroom types
Suite
If you’re a traveler who wants the best of the best, then booking a Suite onboard MS Maud is the way to go. From the most living and storage space to extra perks, larger bathrooms, and faster, more personalized service, Suites have everything you need for an unforgettable experience.

Oceanview
For a budget-friendly stateroom that still provides a view of the outside, you might consider booking an Oceanview stateroom.

This is an especially good option for quickly overcoming jet lag if you’re traveling in a different time zone. Depending on where your Inside stateroom is located, you’ll generally feel less movement, which is great for preventing seasickness.
